How conference tables are adapting to changing trends in hybrid and remote work
Conference tables tailored to changing work trends
Until recently, the conference table was primarily used for meetings to discuss important company matters. Selected employees would gather around it, and the topics discussed during these meetings often couldn't leave the room. Today, the dynamics of such events look somewhat different. Increasingly, only part of the staff gathers in the conference room, while others join remotely. For this to be possible, organisers must equip the room with specialised equipment and other modern conveniences.
Conference tables – modern features
Contemporary business meetings are increasingly held as video conferences. For this purpose, webcams connected to laptops, tablets, or desktop computers are used. Special software is employed to transmit communication via internet protocols. In modern conference rooms, high-quality cameras and screens are used, enabling conversations without any technical glitches.
Modern conference tables are becoming increasingly technologically advanced. They easily integrate with video conferencing systems, allowing screen sharing and connectivity. These tables are also equipped with media ports for concealing sockets and USB chargers beneath the tabletop. Thanks to these features, conference participants can use their devices without spoiling the aesthetics of the table and the entire room.
In the MARO collection of conference furniture, you will find tables designed to meet the needs of modern users. The L-Line conference table, for instance, is equipped with media ports.
Conference tables – attractive design
Since conference rooms are now opening up to a wider audience, with video conferences involving participants from different parts of the country and even the world, the design of these tables has taken on greater significance. Modern conference tables are made from high-quality materials and refined down to the smallest details. They influence the company’s image and reflect much about the conference organiser. Elegant legs, natural tops, aesthetic finishes – you’ll find such tables in the MARO office furniture collection as well.
Choose the Sirio conference table with a simple stone top and stylish legs to give your room the appropriate prestige. Be sure to also check out other models of conference tables available in our offer.
Conference tables – ergonomics and health
Long-lasting video conferences force participants to remain seated for extended periods. The production of modern conference tables places a strong emphasis on ergonomics and the health of users. The simple construction of the furniture allows for perfect alignment with chairs and ensures full freedom of movement. The ability to adopt a proper sitting posture affects not only comfort and better concentration but also health.
In the MARO store, you’ll find tables with plenty of space under the tabletop, large yet lightweight and easy to arrange. The optimal height of the tabletop ensures freedom and comfort for users. Conference tables we haven't yet mentioned but can confidently recommend include the very elegant natural Ario conference table and the Sirio Mobile conference table – a model on wheels that can create a temporary conference room.
